Hello,
I've got an sx seca and it has started to develop a small amound of rust around where the windscreen meets the roof. I was hoping to get it fixed before it starts to get serious.
So, I was wondering if anyone can recommend a body shop that will do quality work. I live on the north shore near hornsby so somewhere near there will be good, but I'd be willing to travel Sydney wide for a good place.
Oh, and can someone give me an indication roughly of how much it would likely cost? I know it's hard to estimate these things, but someone must have had something similar done before.
Thanks people

Francos at Wetherill Park are good.
They will also do a bit better on price if they know it will be a cash job.....

Hey there,
Thornleigh Auto body do good work. It is nice and close to Hornsby (on Duffy ave just off pennant hills rd).
I had my first SX seca there back in 2000 for the exact same thing. They did a great job of the roof.
My second SX seca had the rust done before i bought it and i can safely say that it had a dodge job done on the roof.

Cheers for the replies fellas.
Plugger, as a matter of interest how much did it cost you to have your roof done in 2000?

Well i actually got it done as a favour because my car was in for insurance repairs and they found the rust when they went to replace the window ( FYI if it has started on the outside chances are there is alot more in the roof). I know the guy who organises the work up there and he did it as a returned favour. But i can tell you that they said it was about a $500 value, and i considered it to be a good job for that price.
